Adding marker of something with addAction

[zukas3]

Hello everyone, As I got deeper into SQF scripting I thinked il try out to make something more with addAction, and I seem to fail with making a marker to appear on location where addAction has been used.
For example I made stash that spawns in random places and when you find it you can come to it and do addAction (locate) which will make a marker on map so everyone could see on the map but I seem to fail,
here is what SQF looks like, please ignore everything else I made in the script but note me what I did wrong, Thank you for your time.

_actHad = _this select 0;
_actUsed = _this select 1;
_actID = _this select 2;
_myXpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 3;
_myYpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 4;
_actHad removeaction _actID;
_actUsed sidechat "I found the stash!";
titleText ["Stash has been found!","PLAIN DOWN"];
_markerstr = createMarker["stashHere",[_Xpos,_Ypos]];
_markerstr setMarkerShape "ICON";
"stashHere" setMarkerType "DOT";

_myXpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 3;
_myYpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 4;

This isn't valid. getPos returns [xPos,yPos,zPos] so you can't select 3 and 4. That's outside the array size.
To get the xpos/ypos use this

_myXpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 0;
_myYpos = (getPos _actUsed) select 1;

And you're not using the variables that you declared above down here:

_markerstr = createMarker["stashHere",[_Xpos,_Ypos]];

You can also use _markerstr instead of using the actual marker name.

//"stashHere" setMarkerType "DOT";
_markerstr setMarkerType "DOT";

Thanks for the response il try this out and say how it turned out, also I have tried -showScriptErrors before but it made my game crash on bad scripts

Edit: Thanks it all worked, just -showScriptErrors still becomes unknown reason.. Thanks again!
